The decision is being made by the admins, and as mentioned, the receipient will not be annouced.

Any last minute considerations?

BlackT5. Mark's a super great guy - generous with sound advice and always courteous to fellow members. Plus he has an s70 that would fit the R bumper. Not sure if he's got broke status tho' with all the mods in his car.

I would prefer the wallenberg family to buy volvo back so it is a true swedish company once again.

Well going back to Swedish roots, how about the guy who owns Ikea and was once (but briefly) the world's richest man?

Maybe he'll sell Volvos in knock down kits you can assemble in your own garage. I bet many of you guys are just gonna love the idea.

I view VS at work using the lo-fi version. The all-text screen looks less "goofing-off".

Sorry I was AFK all day yesterday. Yes just basic stuff. Bevel gears, ETC, misc computer issues, and so on. Basically same format as Bay 13. Informal writing style is fine as long as its detailed. IE Tools needed and torque values.

I did a write-up at Matthews Volvo site years ago when I did my first ever repair on a Volvo.

If this is good enough for you, I'll ask Matthew if I can extract the original text of my write-up.

... what kind of repairs? All general repairs?

Second the question. Do you need articles that is not already covered in Bay13?

Are you going to upgrade from the whites?

The 2.5L block is somewhat prone to crack the sleeves when pushed.

What about the 2.3L HPT engines?

Awesome Mark. Bet you are having a lot of fun putting the new pieces all together. What a way to start the new year.

Did you drop in the NA cams?

Merry Christmas to everyone and may you have more whp in the coming year!

Stock perfos for the true sleeper look

Won't the FMIC give a clue? What brakes are gonna stop all that juice?

Awesome project Mark. Hope to see it at the Mission track next year.

Email sent.

Came out to 320whp. Tune it right or dont do it at all!

Rob, is this on ME4.x or ME7? What car specifically?

Silver pegs on a white R looks great!

Altho I bought the earlier generation end links and never got to install them yet, I'd be interested in the X-treme version.

Good to see your back here.

here's a Q does any one know if the rear Koni's on the FSD's have changed the adjuster which required you to remove the shock from the car to adjust it...a lot of other cars have the adjustment on the top of the dampner like the fronts

I believe the FSDs are non-adjustable.

PM sent again but your inbox is full.

Sent you PM a few days ago. Waiting for a reply pls.

Let's see what others say. If the other software seems better and there's more interest in that, then maybe we should switch gears. How much is it typically anyway?

Something like 200 British pounds - which makes it rather expensive compared to generic OBD2 software. I'm curious about the "live data" feature - what does it read that OBD2 doesn't.

How about trying a GB for the VOL-FCR software as it can reset Service light, SRS light, read live data from ECU and more. It's expensive but offers more features for the money.

Just sales for the moment.. Although my goal is to convince the owners to open up the shop to the public..

Yeah, Bay-Volvo!

All the best in your new gig, Kev. Will you be in sales or service?

Now who will tell the newbs to search?

i dont have horns anymore, thats what fingers are for

LOL! Good one.

Just got on this thread - who's car is the V70 with the Kyalamis? Awesome, I love it.
